I purchased this cleanser for use mainly in the mornings. I wanted something that would thoroughly cleanse and provide some light exfoliation. This does a great job at both. I researched a lot of options for this type of product before deciding on Kiehl's. It can be difficult to find a cleanser and exfoliator in one (most physical exfoliators are meant for use on already cleansed skin) that is...read more gentle enough for everyday use. More companies should be making cleansers like this one. This cleanser is quite nice to use. It spreads over my face easily and the exfoliating beads in it are very fine. It doesn't feel like this is tearing up my skin at all like some other exfoliating products have. This is unscented too so it is good for those who have sensitive skin in that respect. For a cream cleanser, this is also surprisingly easy to rinse off. When I'm done, my skin feels super smooth and refreshed, but not tight or too dry. My makeup goes on smoother as well, which is part of why I really love this for the mornings. I wouldn't use this with the Clarisonic because of the exfoliating particles. This is another winner from Kiehl's!— 2 years, 7 months ago

I love this cleanser. I have freakishly oily skin that can peel and flake if I use the wrong cleanser on it. Well, this cleanser is the perfect blend of purifier and softener. Although it is fairly pricey, you only need a very small amount to leave your skin feeling like a baby's bottom.

I've been using Kiehl's for about (6) months and I find it the best cleanser I've discovered to-date. I use it the morning about 3 to 4 times a week. Those little beads are not harsh on the skin and do a fine job of exfoliating. I have dry skin and I recently noticed a difference in my pores and blackheads around the nose area. Blackheads are gone and pores are in much better shape. My skin h...read moreas the appearance of being healthier. I looks great and feels wonderful, I will continue to use Kiehl's cleaners but I will not purchase it at Amazon with a certain seller. People are complain about not receiving a full tube of product and pre-opened tubes. Will stick to a drugstore or find a trustworthy seller at Amazon. This Product deserves a ten (10) star rating. — 2 years ago
